Fixed fare · Advance booking only
Your private driver takes you from the centre of Nice or from the airport to Mandelieu-la-Napoule, in a Tesla Model 3, at a fixed fare, by the A8 motorway. The castle on the beach, the golf courses and the gateway to the Esterel, thirty-five kilometres from Nice.
West of Cannes, where the coast turns red, Mandelieu-la-Napoule is a town of sandy beaches, golf courses and residences, with a seaside village, La Napoule, where a couple of American artists rebuilt a medieval castle on the rocks. It is the capital of mimosa, the gateway to the Esterel and the corniche d'Or, and the last sandy beach before the calanques. Ten minutes from Cannes, thirty-five minutes from the airport.
Mimosa in bloom from January to March and its festival in February, golf all year round, the Esterel in sharp light. Mandelieu's most original season.
The first swims in the sheltered coves from May, the Esterel in bloom, the castle in the morning light. The ideal time for the corniche d'Or.
The sandy beaches, the harbour in the evening, concerts at the castle. The seafront is busy towards Théoule; plan the pick-up early in the morning, when the motorway is clear.
Warm water until October, red light on the Esterel, golf courses and trails at their quietest. Mandelieu returns to its rhythm in September.
Thirty-five kilometres separate Nice from Mandelieu-la-Napoule. I take the A8 motorway to the Mandelieu exit, then the town centre or La Napoule depending on your address: the fastest and most reliable route, avoiding the crossing of Cannes. Tolls are included in the fare. On arrival, I drop you at the exact address of your choice: hotel, residence, castle, harbour, golf course or La Napoule station.
To Nice
Same €75 fixed fare the other way, to Nice city centre or the airport, no surcharge. Recommended pick-up: Mandelieu-la-Napoule railway station, your hotel or any address in town.
In the centre of Nice, I pick you up at the address you give: hotel, apartment, Nice-Ville railway station (drop-off point on avenue Thiers) or the port. Enter the exact address in the form; I confirm the precise spot by email.
Mandelieu-la-Napoule has two centres: La Napoule, the seaside village with the castle, the harbour and the beaches; and Mandelieu, the town centre, along the Siagne, with its residences, its golf courses and Cannes-Marina. The fare is the same for both. I drop you in front of your hotel, your residence, the castle or La Napoule station. On summer weekends, the seafront road to Théoule is busy in the late afternoon.
